DuPont Opens New Adhesives Facility in China

DuPont officially opened its new adhesives production facility in Zhangjiagang (ZJG), eastern China, on Wednesday. The new facility will produce adhesives to serve customers in the transportation industry, primarily in lightweighting and fast-growing vehicle electrification applications, the company said.

According to DuPont, the facility, with capacity to serve regional needs, offers state-of-the-art process capability and quality, technical support, and excellent access to transportation for shipping and logistics advantages. The site includes a manufacturing execution system (MES), designed to optimize the manufacturing process and connect all aspects of the manufacturing workflow, making the production process visible, trackable, and more reliable.

“We are thrilled to open this new manufacturing site with its state-of-the-art equipment, innovative products and outstanding colleagues,” said Tina Wu, global vice president of DuPont Adhesives & Fluids, Tedlar and Multibase. “The new ZJG facility will further advance our position as a leading provider of auto electrification solutions and enhance our offerings to customers in China and the Asian market.”

“The unique geographic advantages of the Zhangjiagang Free Trade Zone, located in Zhangjiagang City, are key to attracting high-quality investments from many leading global and local companies,” said Cai Jianfeng, Mayor of Zhangjiagang. “The opening of DuPont’s new facility marks a deepening of its collaboration with our city as well as its commitment to operating in China. This advanced manufacturing hub will accelerate growth in the region and reinforce competitiveness.”
